One Response to “Is Amazon one of the easiest platforms to promote your low budget Indie project?”

Creating a DVD master is not as easy as self-publishing an ebook or a Print-on-Demand trade book, because of the technicalities of video and audio encoding. But you do all that before you ever deal with Amazon. You just send them a DVD-R disc that works. Amazon does not charge for DVD mastering (at least, not yet). If you send them a thoroughly tested DVD that you’ve played back successfully on computers, as well as on both 4:3 and 16:9 TVs, they’ll send you a proof disc to approve. When you do, they’ll burn one each time a customer orders it. Producing the cover art is about as complicated as doing a book cover.

And a lot of indie filmmakers are doing it. Now, how to get viewers interested is the hard part.
